Why Did He Become an Estate Planning Attorney?

Barry’s grandmother Betty did not have long term care insurance. When she fell on ill health, she had to spend down her assets until she had none left. That experience had a profound effect on him—catalyzing his mission to help others avoid those kinds of hardships. He believes people should be able to age with dignity; to have their needs met as they get older; to feel like a joy and not a burden to their families; and to leave proud legacies behind.

Where Does His Commitment Come From?

Barry is excited to come into work every day to meet wonderful families—to help them plan for the future and provide them peace of mind. He’s excited to see the firm growing: The Siegel Law Group, P.A. now has offices in Boca Raton, Palm Beach Gardens, Fort Lauderdale, Aventura, and Miami. What makes him proud is to know that through his passion and commitment he is changing people’s lives and it shows through the several positive reviews and comments from families and their loved ones.
